It would be great to be alerted via email when a new show is posted for a band that I like.

just an idea.

I strongly second that. it would very useful, and probably not too hard from a html standpoint, right?

Although it might put some stress on the sendmail server. :-)
I was thinking an even better idea might be a feature that lets people "subscribe" to bands on the archive they like. Whenever a show is added, a policy change is made, or a review is posted that person would be notified.
Basically it's just like your idea only more involved, although I was also thinking it would be neat if you had the option of a custom home page based on the bands your subscribed to, or at least some sort of "Most Recently Searched" bands list that was different for each user (something along the lines of what amazon.com does, only less complicated obviously).
